| Sumario: | Dental prostheses allow to rehabilitate the condition of partial and total edentulism, to recover the esthetics and well being funtion of the carriers, being able to pass on their health status and quality of life. Objective: To determine the masticatory performance association with the level of satisfaction and the type of partial or total removable prosthesis in rehabilitated patients of the oral rehabilitation postgraduate clinic of the Faculty of Dentistry - Central University of Ecuador (FD - CUE). Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional study to determine the masticatory performance association with the level of satisfaction, gender, facial biotype, eccentric relations, body mass index and type of prosthesis. The sample size was obtained with formula for finite populations and 40 participants with prosthesis (P) divided into 4 groups of 10 individuals were randomly selected: G1: P. Total Bimaxillary, G2: P. Total Unimaxillary higher, G3: P. Maxilar Part III of Kennedy and G4: P. Partial Mandibular class III of Kennedy. The Manly Test was used to measure masticatory performance and the GOHAI survey was applied to the level of satisfaction. The data were analyzed by Chi Square and Kruskal Wallis tests with a level of significance of 5%. Results: An association was found between masticatory performance with the type of prosthesis (p = 0.001) and bilateral balanced deocclusion (p = 0.003), being higher in the carriers of partial maxillary P., in the level of satisfaction the psychosocial dimension showed value of average higher. Conclusions: According to the results of the study, the masticatory performance was high in general, there was an association with the type of prosthesis and the relationship of the disocclusions. In terms of the level of satisfaction, the majority presented low level, with the highest value corresponding to the psychosocial domain. |
